Discussion, to he profitable, must
have some good object in view. It
would seem, therefore, that ad discussion
of the evils of protection, or the bene-
fits thereof, must have in view, if any
object at all, the defeat of the Democratic
candidates for the General Assembly
who hold unorihodox or unsound
opinions on those subjects--that is to
say oUthe Democratic candidates, since
all of them may be presumed to be
either protectionists or anti-protection-

Tho largest camp-meeting ever held

several days at Lick Fork church, near
Rufin. The attendance on Sunday last
Was estimated at 5000 people.
A runaway during the day caused

Mr. Tom Penn, a mos. worthy young
man employed IN the iron-bound
bucket-factory, had the misfortune to
lose three fingers of his right hand
from carelessly handling a circular saw
last week. He is a printer by profes-

able him for further service in that

A coitain Albany grocer, to make
good show, has been in the habit Of
leaving COTE e-ba9s filed with sand IN
front OF his store during the daytime.
The other night, by mistake, one Of the

saw what appeared to be bag of coffee,
and the coyetous man paid 81 for

bag and drove of with il. he discov.

The New York Hcrald talks of MA

The New York UcrdH talks of Ma
HONE as follows
"The Roanoke platform declares that
President Cleveland will receive the
cordial support of the Democratic party
Of Virginia. That declaration Malone
cries must be insincere and why 7?
For no candid or sensible reason what
ever but Malone, in the absence of a
more plausible basis for an aggressive
campaign, has foolishly chosen what is
as sure as quicksand to give way I'M
der his feet, and what, so far as light
goes for his followers, will prove as
illusory as a will o the wisp."
The New York World says:
cit would be improved by an infu-
sion of what it calls Governor Lees
frivolous levity.'"

MEN WHO TALK.
Hon. j. X. McCammon.

Hon. JOSEPH X McCAMMoN, exUnited
States assistant attorney-general-On my
journey from Chicago to st. Paul was very
much amused at an instance of credulity on
the part of young Englishman which will
demonstrate the opinion entertained of us by
our cousins across the water. There were
visited this country about three years ago,
and consequently they were pretty well
posted. But not so with their companion,
who was fully convinced that after leaving
Chicago nothing short of savages and wild
beasts would be encountered, and he pre-
pared himself for such an emergency. His
outfit comprised no less than seven rifles, two
of which he had purchased in Chicago and
paid good round sum for. We were thrown
together naturally, and l questioned the
Englishman, whom | found to be with
one exception very intelligent, comprehen-
sive, bright, young fellows. He of the rifles
summed up his qualifications when he stated
that while at Cambridge, where his compan-
ions were educated, he ''only took rowing"
All his talk was of the people that he ex-
from his trip across the continent and his
friends, who were great wags, encouraged
him i'll every possible way, even going so far
as to urge him to strap his revolvers about his
waist while in st. Paul, for 1t was not I'M
usual for half dozen men to be shot down
In the principal street daily. j would like to
meet the young oarSman when he returns to
New York and ascertain how many times he
had occasion to use his Winchester repeating
rifle

tive of class so prevalent in all large cities.
